| Way back in the beginning of Demi Moore's career here pals, watch this and then watch "Striptease" - hmmm, are they real? I think not! Good old Demi also has a serious fixation with lemons in this flick, they even call her the lemon girl. Our hero in the movie is Paul though, he is running from a corrupt company and trying to cure himself of a parasite. (You get to watch a man give injections to a raised mound of latex on his belly) Well, the company sends a "merchant" to kill Paul and some gang is out to get him as well. Seems like everyone wants to kick Paul's ass, looking at him I see why. "Merchants" appear to be futuristic hit men equipped with killer laser pointers. It's your standard storybook ending though: Guy sonic waves parasite in his stomach to death, guy fights "merchant" to save girl, "merchant" is attacked by surviving parasite, then guy sets "merchant" and parasite on fire. Didn't Disney do this one? |

| Things I Learned From This Movie: | |
|
- Never carry flesh boring Parasites in a uncovered petri dish.
- Laser pistols are made of low durability plastic.
- In the future silver is the base currency... ...um because it's more common than gold and doesn't conduct electricity as well.
- Parasites should be carried in a large thermos.
- Demi Moore really likes lemons.
- Laser pointers can cut your hand off.
- Nasty, violent, thief dudes should not complain that "you can't care about people anymore."
- If you know a Parasite's frequency you can sonic wave it into boiling chili.
